[0001] The invention relates to a furnace bottom of an ore-heating furnace, in particular to a water-cooled furnace bottom of an ore-heating furnace, and belongs to the technical field of design and manufacture of furnace bottoms of ore-heating furnaces. Background Art

[0002] At present, the furnace bottoms of ore-fired furnaces mainly include conductive furnace bottoms, multi-contact pin type and steel column type furnace bottoms. The electrodes of this type of furnace bottoms are not only complex in structure, but also have a large cooling area for the furnace bottom electrodes, resulting in a large cooling temperature difference during use, which can easily cause internal arc deviation and uneven heating of the raw materials. The existing technology mostly uses air cooling to cool the furnace bottom. Although the air cooling method has a relatively simple structure, the cooling effect is poor. At the same time, air cooling has a high space requirement and requires sufficient space to install large air cooling equipment. Ordinary small factories are difficult to meet the requirements. In addition, the air cooling method cannot recycle waste heat, resulting in energy waste. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing technology. Summary of the invention

[0003] In order to solve the problems that the existing furnace bottom electrodes of the submerged arc furnace adopt air cooling, resulting in poor cooling effect and inability to recover waste heat, the present invention provides a water-cooled furnace bottom of the submerged arc furnace.

[0005] The water outlet pipe is connected to a cooler or to a device that needs to use hot water.

[0006] The conductive copper tile includes a central conductive copper tile located at the center, a first conductive copper tile group surrounding the central conductive copper tile and in a ring shape, and a second conductive copper tile group surrounding the first conductive copper tile group and in a ring shape; two groups of central serpentine cooling channels are symmetrically arranged in the central conductive copper tile, one end of each group of central serpentine cooling channels is connected to a central water inlet pipe extending downward, and the other end is connected to a central water outlet pipe extending downward; the first conductive copper tile group includes a plurality of first fan-shaped conductive copper tiles equally divided along its ring shape, each of which is provided with a first serpentine cooling channel, one end of the first serpentine cooling channel is connected to the first water inlet pipe extending downward, and the other end is connected to the first water outlet pipe extending downward; the second conductive copper tile group includes a plurality of second fan-shaped conductive copper tiles equally divided along its ring shape, each of which is provided with a second serpentine cooling channel, one end of the second serpentine cooling channel is connected to a second water inlet pipe extending downward, and the other end is connected to a second water outlet pipe extending downward.

[0008] The central conductive copper tile is provided with a central connecting hole for connecting a thermocouple.

[0009] The first sector-shaped conductive copper tile is provided with a first connecting hole for connecting a thermocouple.

[0010] The second sector-shaped conductive copper tile is provided with a second connection hole for connecting a thermocouple.

[0011] The diameter of the central serpentine cooling channel is 42 mm.

[0012] The diameter of the first serpentine cooling channel is 60 mm.

[0013] The diameter of the second serpentine cooling channel is 60 mm.

[0014] The tower-type equalizing flow water distributor comprises a water supply main composed of a vertical upper thin tube and a lower thick tube. The upper thin tube and the lower thick tube are respectively connected to the inner sides of the upper and lower annular tubes through corresponding upper and lower horizontal connecting tubes. The outer sides of the upper and lower annular tubes are respectively connected to a plurality of corresponding upper water inlet branches and a plurality of lower water inlet branches which are arranged at intervals. The plurality of upper water inlet branches are respectively connected to the corresponding first fan-shaped conductive copper tile water inlet pipes, and the plurality of lower water inlet branches are respectively connected to the corresponding second fan-shaped conductive copper tile water inlet pipes. Two top water inlet branches are arranged on the top of the upper thin tube.

[0017] The diameters of the upper and lower water inlet branches are the same, and the number of elbows and the bending angles of each water inlet branch are the same, so that the flow rate and pressure of cooling water entering the cavity of the conductive copper tile remain consistent.

[0018] The upper and lower water inlet branches are provided with throttling orifice plates, which include two flanges provided on the water inlet branch and an orifice plate provided between the two flanges and having a plurality of through holes thereon.

The cooling water after absorbing heat can be used for other purposes, making full use of the heat energy, and the water after cooling can be returned to facilitate recycling, greatly reducing the cooling cost, and being more green and environmentally friendly. It is indeed an ideal water-cooled furnace bottom cooling of the submerged arc furnace. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
